Hi,  
Maybe it's something simple but I've searched for this setting everywhere and this is my last resort.  
Whatever URL I input in the node it will show me sort of like a preview of the request below the node.  
How can I turn it off?

Thanks,  
Cris

That is not the standard http request node installed and maintain by node-red development team.

Where did you get the node you are using?

Well this is from the package.json. From this project [https://github.com/node-red/node-red-docker/blob/master/docker-custom/package.json](https://github.com/node-red/node-red-docker/blob/master/docker-custom/package.json)  
I've build an image with this version  
`FROM nodered/node-red:3.1`

The only thing I added are the contrib\* and dashboard dependencies.

```auto
"dependencies": {
        "node-red": "3.1.0",
        "node-red-contrib-image-tools": "~2.0.4",
        "node-red-contrib-mongodb4": "~2.1.0",
        "node-red-contrib-prometheus-exporter": "~1.0.5",
        "node-red-dashboard": "~3.5.0",
    }

```

Is that a grey-scale image? Normally the http request node is yellow

Observation: there is a blue dot. Doesn’t look like the authentic http request node

Oh yes. As you say, not the usual http request node. Somehow @cristianTeknoir has managed to build a docker image with a non-standard http request node.

If you highlight the node and open the sidebar to info, what does the module say.
